This chicken was amazing and super simple to make.
Reviewed Oct. 22, 2013
Wonderful! Used cream cheese and added fresh chives from the garden. Forgot the butter and onion, but used sea salt with garlic grinder. Just make sure you wrap the bacon tightly. I think using a broiler pan works better than a roasting pan. Doesn't sit in grease that way. Was not dry. Decrease baking time by 5 min. and then add 5 min. to broil on other side.
Reviewed Sep. 29, 2013
i made this an hour ago my boss asked for the recipie
Reviewed Sep. 8, 2013
I made the for my parents and my mother has asked me to make it over and over! Great recipe!
Reviewed Jun. 24, 2013
Made this last night . The only thing I changed was using plain cream cheese and fresh chives. Will make again

Nora's Will
Nora's Will
Mariana Chenillo, 2008
Wex at Gateway
Join us at the Gateway Film Center (located in the South Campus Gateway, just three blocks to our south) where we program a different exceptional independent or international title for a run of at least two weeks each month. Wexner Center members pay member pricing for all Wex at Gateway screenings—and save on most other movies at Gateway too.
"[Nora's Will] left me with a smile of satisfaction—a reward too few films offer nowadays. I suspect other, flashier foreign films with bigger promotional budgets will capture the lion's share of media attention this movie season, but I doubt any will surpass this one for pure enjoyment."—Leonard Maltin
Nora had a plan. It would bring her ex-husband Jose (Fernando Lujan), and the rest of their family together for a magnificent Passover feast. But there is a flaw in her plan—a mysterious photograph from the past, hidden under the bed, which leads Jose to reexamine their relationship and rediscover their undying love for each other. This outstanding film won 7 Mexican Academy Awards including Best Picture of the Year! (92 mins., 35mm)
Check out our January Cinema Latino series for more exceptional films from Latin America.

Things to buy in Penang
What souvenir is appropriate when you visit Penang? Penang is famous for its snacks, most of which are available from the stalls at
Chowrasta Market
Tau Sah Pneah
Malaysian handicrafts such as Labu Sayong or Songket, these are not immediately available in Penang, and would be more costly and limited in choice, than to go straight to the source.

Smoke on the Water: Stopping a Coal-fired Power Plant in Arkansas
Nationwide, coal-fired power plants appear to be on the way out. But in southwest Arkansas--next to some of the finest fish and wildlife habitat anywhere--one may be on the way in.
Incredibly, the site was chosen without anyone from the consulting team AEP had retained to do the selection study ever laying eyes on it. When I asked McCellon-Allen where the Hempstead site alternative finished in the ranking study, she said, "Of course, you've been coached by another party or you wouldn't have asked that question." But I hadn't been coached. In the course of my research I'd learned that the site was low on the list, and I was merely seeking accurate figures. I had to acquire them elsewhere.
In the 27-criteria selection study, conducted by an independent contractor, the Hempstead site finished seventh out of 10. Later, when the study was expanded to include Texas, it finished ninth out of 12. The study examined sites on two levels--"must criteria," which had to be satisfied or the site would be rejected, and "want criteria," which would merely be nice to have. The "must criteria" included the stipulation that the site not be within 100 kilometers (about 60 miles) of what the Clean Air Act designates a Class 1 Area. But the Caney Creek Wilderness of the Ouachita National Forest is a Class 1 Area, and it's 90 kilometers away.
"I think AEP came down here to exploit what is one of the more remote and desperate areas in Arkansas," offers Hempstead County Hunting Club member Willis Smith. "I don't believe they had any idea they were going to run into the environmental issues that they did. I think they thought it was going to be the easiest place they could go."
With Audubon Arkansas' Ken Smith and Dan Scheiman, I visited other beautiful and productive fish and wildlife habitat near the proposed site--for example, the Millwood Lake IBA, where great and snowy egrets adorned baldcypresses older than our nation and stalked mudflats two miles out, showing in the shadows of thunderheads and drowned timber like marshmallows strewn on asphalt. Ospreys and Caspian terns patrolled open water. In the Little River, below the dam, two fishermen were cleaning up on white bass and channel catfish. Yellow mayflies swarmed around us, and turtles (red-eared sliders, as far as we could determine) drifted in the slow, nearshore current.
At the Game and Fish Commission's Grandview Prairie Wildlife Management Area, part of another IBA, we inspected perhaps the most endangered habitat in the nation--blackland prairie, an important sanctuary for grassland birds.
West of Grassy Lake, Yellow Creek Hunting Club member Dick Broach guided us up a wide, slow flow teeming with wading birds, turtles, alligators, and enormous largemouth bass. Broach, a fisheries biologist who retired in 1997 after bootstrapping his way to deputy director of the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission, didn't strike me as "rich" any more than did Yancey Reynolds, Johnny Wilson, or Willis Smith (also self-made men). But in southwest Arkansas, national norms don't apply.
"We're very apprehensive about mercury," Broach remarked. "And we're worried about all the rail traffic. There will be spillage, and the transmission corridor will cut through old-growth cypress on one side or old-growth bottomland hardwoods on the other. I don't see how this can possibly survive a challenge in a court of law. I hope it doesn't have to go that far."
Where the creek started to narrow, Broach beached his aluminum motorboat, and we stepped into a wet, fragrant forest of Osage orange, towering shagbark and water hickories, cottonwoods, and oaks. As we hiked, we talked about fish, wildlife, and the future.
When I asked what the chances are that the environmental community and the hunt clubs could stop the coal plant, Ken Smith said, "I'd say we have a 50/50 chance. Before the Arkansas Public Service Commission began its hearings in August, I think our chances were well below that. But the governor has appointed two commissioners, including a new chairman. Since then the commission has raised such issues as mercury, carbon, habitat, and even IBAs."
America needs more energy but not more coal energy. There are all manner of alternatives, not the least of which is not wasting energy--a strategy we have never tried. "We should look at available gas," says Addison. "There are gas plants that are mothballed or used for different functions. We should look at other power plants that for one reason or another are not online, or operating below capacity. We should look at renewable energy and energy conservation. There is no reason to build another coal plant anywhere. And each one we build we'll regret 30 years from now."
The tenure of most corporate executives and elected officials is less than a decade, so few care what happens 30 years hence. But if state and federal regulators allow AEP to build its proposed coal plant, there will be people doing even more regretting than hunt-club members. They will be the children whose lives local politicians and their constituents say they're seeking to improve.

May 03, 2011
Majorities of Americans say news organizations focused too much last week on both the royal wedding in England and the release of the long-form version of Barack Obama's birth certificate.
Nearly two-thirds (64%) say the press gave too much coverage to the April 29 wedding in London of Prince William and Kate Middleton, while 54% say the media gave too much coverage to the release of Obama's long-form birth certificate, according to the latest weekly News Interest Index survey, conducted April 28-May 1 among 1,006 adults. (This survey was conducted before U.S. forces killed Osama bin Laden; a survey released earlier today found that while most Americans heard about bin Laden's death from television, many young people first learned about the news from social networking.)
On the other hand, roughly four-in-ten (39%) say news organizations provided too little coverage of news about rising gas and oil prices, while 44% say the media got the amount of coverage about right. Just 13% say the press gave too much coverage to this critical pocketbook concern.

Summary of You Have No Idea Summary of You Have No Idea Reviews for You Have No Idea An Excerpt from You Have No Idea
A candid and inspirational mother-daughter memoir of family, fame, trials, and triumphs by superstar Vanessa Williams her mother Helen Williams.
Since she was a little girl, Vanessa Williams wanted to be on Broadway. As a musical theater major in college she was on her way, but life took a turn when she became the first black Miss America. Forced to resign due to a nude photo scandal, it looked like her dreams were over. But through determination, and with a mom who was always there for her, she went on to conquer the entertainment world.
Like most teenagers, Vanessa Williams was often at odds with her mom. Despite their early conflicts, Helen has always ardently protected her daughter, staying in contact with the FBI about death threats Vanessa received and being there for her through the birth of her four children and dissolution of her two marriages. Vanessa and Helen tell of how they've made it through the many ups and down in their lives; and Vanessa dishes on her career and parts of her life that even her mother had no idea about—until now.
You Have No Idea is a celebration of the love between a mother and daughter as well as the lives thus far of two women who have consistently defied the odds to achieve success – no matter how uncertain their paths might have been.

The youth take a stand
Today civil society observers held two symbolic actions during the talks, one was a show of solidarity and the other, a show of disgust.
Members of the Canadian Youth Delegation turn their backs on Canada. Credit: CYD DJC
At around midday, members of the Canadian Youth Delegation took a stand against their Environment Minister, Peter Kent, for his shameless drive to promote tar sands oil throughout the talks - one of the world's dirtiest and most destructive fuels.
As the Minister was about to deliver his opening address to delegates in the talks, six Canadian Youth stood up and turned away from the Minister revealing the message "Turn your back on Canada" prominently displayed on their t-shirts.
Shortly afterwards the individuals involved were ejected from the talks.
In a statement issued after their eviction the Canadian Youth gave their justification:
"Our so-called Environment Minister entered these talks by going on record that he would be defending the tar sands. I have yet to hear him say that he's here to defend my future" said James Hunt.
Canada has been severely criticised for their continued push to get countries to buy tar sands oil from them. Meanwhile it deliberately downplays the climate impact of tar sands and continues to cast doubt on independent scientific studies.
stand strong for africa
An impromptu action calls for people to 'stand strong for Africa' at the UN climate talks in Durban. Later, in the dining area, youth from various civil society delegations took part in an impromptu action in support of Africa. Several people sang a popular South African folk song substituting one of the lines with the words "stand strong for Africa."
The purpose of the action was to urge African negotiators to stand
strong and not give in to the demands of the developed countries to kill the
Kyoto protocol.
Two African members of FoEIs delegation later added to the calls of solidarity and critised the developed countries and corporate lobbyists:
"Many civil society groups are calling Durban a conference of polluters. We cannot let the polluters win and lock in a decade of inaction on the climate crisis. Africa must stand strong on behalf of the people of Africa and the people of the world," said Bobby Peek of Friends of the Earth South Africa.
Nnimmo Bassey, of Friends of the Earth Nigeria and the Friends of the Earth International Chair, added that:
"Rich countries must hear loud and clear that Africa won't pay for their crisis. Developed countries are trying to kill the Kyoto Protocol. They want to turn back the clock to 1997 and shift responsibility for the climate crisis they created onto the developing countries already bearing the brunt of climate change."

Chronicle is one of those movies that you better walk into without any idea whatsoever about the film's plot or anything because for me I saw the trailer & went in which kinda spilled the whole plot. That being said, you may proceed reading my review of the film.
The plot revolves around 3 teenage highschool students who after a certain incident discover they have newfound super abilities. The teenagers chronicle their day to day life coping with these abilities. It felt like a cross-over between Tim Kring's "Heroes" TV Series & J. J. Abrams "Cloverfield".
Without going further into the plot I just wanna say that this is not your average superhero type of movie & NO I don't mean it's like Will Smith's Hancock. The real life documentary type of shooting puts Chronicle in a class of its own. [Spoiler] The flying scenes were simply breathtaking. Superman WHO?! [Spoiler]
For superhero fanboys this film is a MUST & if you want to watch something interesting then you'll be in for a ride as well! Nice take on adolescence & coming of age drama with a superhero twist. I give it 8/10!
ps. This post will be edited later with pics/videos once I'm back behind my laptop screen =)

ADA News
CDC retains oral health division
Washington—CDC officials told the Association Nov. 10 that the agency will retain its Division of Oral Health, which had been slated for an effective downgrading by yearend as a branch of another division.
"The restoration of oral health to a division of the CDC clearly indicates the importance the HHS and CDC are placing on oral health," Dr. William R. Calnon, Association president, told the ADA News. "The importance of oral health to overall well being is a fact and this move validates their belief in this.
"This is a culmination of hard work on the part of the ADA leadership and professional staff, many other stakeholders in the oral health arena, congressional and agency supporters and basic grassroots believers in the importance of oral health," Dr. Calnon said.
The ADA strongly objected to the proposed reorganization in a Jan. 11, 2011 letter to the administration's top health official, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. "We strongly urge you to maintain the CDC's Division of Oral Health as a separate entity within the chronic disease center so that they can continue to improve the oral health of Americans from inception to old age," said the Association's elected and staff leadership.
This was a second attempt by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention leaders to downgrade the status of oral health within the HHS agency. An aroused Association, professional and congressional allies opposed and reversed a 1996 plan to transfer oral health activities and subsume them in a separate division. The parent HHS department later agreed to preserve the oral health focus at CDC and restored divisional status in 1997.

The Reebok Spartan Race will make its debut in Cornhusker Country on October 12 in Lincoln, Nebraska. It will be held at Abbott Sports Complex just outside of Lincoln. The complex features a creek, hills, and a unique ATV track. There will be three fast miles on fairly flat cornfield terrain with more than 15 Spartan-tough obstacles to conquer. The course will be extremely spectator friendly. There will be lots of opportunities to catch the action of the obstacles and there will be bleachers for fans to cheer on their favorite Spartans.
Who to watch: A fan favorite and face quite familiar to the top podium step, Amelia Boone, reigning Spartan Race World Champion will be bringing her fast sprint action to Cornhusker Country. Challenging Amelia we will be seeing Rose Wetzel Sinnett, a speedster who is not to be underestimated. Rose has completed 5k races with times the 16 minute range. She has also placed very well in her first Spartan Race in Pacific NW a few months ago.
On the men's side, look for Spartan veterans and top elites Elliott Megquier, Chris Rutz, Jeff Bent, and Joe Kauder to be right up there in the lead. Rob Michaud from Wyoming will also be battling for one of the top spots, Rob consistently places in the top percent of Spartan Races in which he competes. James Appleton, United Kingdom's top obstacle course racer, will be showing us what game he has on flatter terrain in Cornhusker Land. The 2012 Reebok CrossFit Games Third Place male, Kyle Kasperbauer, will also be out there tearing up the course with some friends from his box CrossFit Omaha.
Although this is the first Spartan Race to Nebraska, it promises to be full of competition and packed with excitement. The weather forecast sounds favorable for a perfect day in the land of the Cornhuskers.

The Oxford English Dictionary defines an eponym as a person . . . after whom a discovery, invention, institution, etc is named or thought to be named. Eponyms are deeply rooted in tradition and their use has long been viewed as a matter of taste. However, it is time to abandon them in favour of a more descriptive nomenclature.
Eponyms often provide a less than truthful account of how diseases were discovered and reflect influence, politics, language, habit, or even sheer luck rather than scientific achievement. Moreover, the continued use of tainted eponyms is inappropriate and will not be accepted by patients, relatives, or the public.
Eponyms connected to Nazi medicine are inappropriate
The atrocities committed by Nazi doctors are well documented1; they received new attention with the discovery that Hans Reiter, a German doctor who is remembered for his discovery of a variant …

I was introduced to the term "launch goggles" at PAX East this year. It's probably been around for longer than that, but that was my fist time hearing it. The term refers to the ability of the press to overlook flaws in a brand new AAA game during it's launch period. It's a mix of PR brainwashing, hype, and anticipation that can often lead to reviewers giving a game a higher score than they normally would.
Why do I bring this up? Because in reviewing Alan Wake I've had a hard time figuring out if it is really that good or if I've drunk so much of the Alan Wake Kool-Aid over the last five years that I can't help but give the game a good score.
Alan Wake is set in Bright Falls, which feels like the Northwest version of Stephen King's Bangor, Maine. Much like the sleepy town in Maine, Bright Falls is plagued by lots of odd happenings and strange occurrences, so much that the townsfolk just seem to be used to people just disappearing for one reason or the other. The town seems like the perfect destination for burned out writer Alan Wake to take a vacation and try to re-charge his creative batteries
so he can get past the writers block that's been plaguing him for the last several months. Along for the trip is his wife Alice, who helped convince Alan that the trip is a good idea. It's not until they get to Bright Falls and get to their cabin in the middle of a mysterious lake that they realize what a kook-haven Bright Falls is. They aren't in the cabin for more than a few hours before Alice is kidnapped by the dark presence living in the lake, forcing Alan (and you) to figure out what's going on and how to get his wife back.
It's hard to get too far into the plot without spoiling parts of Alan Wake, so I'll just say that the plot will keep you guessing and there are enough curves and bends to keep you interested. Those looking for a firm resolution at the end will be a bit disappointed (it's not Sopranos bad but, like the ending of Lost, there's lots of room for interpretation). That's not a bad thing at all and it certainly leaves Remedy some room to flesh things out via DLC or a sequel (if the game sells well enough).
The writing is tight and and the story is told in a variety of ways. The first layer is the standard narration by Herr Wake and exposition from the characters around him and everything is well scripted and thought out. The words are also married to a mostly perfect voice over cast, which further improves the experience.
The second level of narration is is what separates Alan Wake from most other games on the market. After his wife is kidnapped, Alan wakes up dazed and confused in his car, which is precariously hanging over a ledge. After escaping the car he realizes that he has lost a week of his life. It turns out that during the lost week, Alan has written a novel which has been broken apart and the pages have been put in his path to fill him in on what he is supposed to do. This part of the narrative is amazingly strong as the pages range from events in the future, to events that have just happened, and events in the past. They do an amazingly good job of filling in the details and pulling the player through the game. The only downside is that you can occasionally miss the odd page or two if you aren't paying attention.

"Today ... the Army is failing in its efforts to combat sexual assault and sexual harassment," he said.
Remember, a Pentagon report last week estimated that as many as 26,000 military members may have been sexually assaulted in 2012, based on survey results. President Obama has been right to react with anger over those frightening numbers.
Army life is tough enough as it is. The military culture is rough and overtly macho. Yet, an all-volunteer military stretched thin by two protracted wars can't use strain as an excuse for what seems to be rampant sexual harassment in the Army.
Americans volunteer to wear this nation's uniform. They shouldn't have to consider the possibility of sexual harassment as part of the deal.

Students in environmental studies have seized this opportunity to do some very interesting research. ENST 390: Community-based Study of Environmental Issues The ability to conduct graduate-level research as an undergraduate is one of Colgate's distinct advantages.

Rated 4 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 4 out of 5 by PCKaren Works Well with Dipping Bowls While not nearly as "classy" as most of the Winterberry collection, these spoons fit nicely into small serving bowls and dishes, allowing for easy transfer of sauces or dressings to individual plates. Bought them to use with the set of 3 dip bowls with wire rack, and, for that purpose, am happy I did since they keep the Winterberry theme going, and do add a bright touch to the table. Very easy to clean, too, either by hand or dishwasher. January 7, 2014

Clarifying Lotion 1
Dermatologist-developed formula helps reveal fresher skin. Sweeps away dulling flakes so moisturizer can do its job better.
Helps fine dry lines disappear.
See what our Insiders say:
My skin became clearer
I think my skin became noticeably clearer while using the products of the 3-Step System together. The Liquid Facial Soap feels like it really cleans without irritating. The Clarifying Lotion leaves my skin feeling fresh (however, even though I used the Clarifying Lotion for Very Dry to Dry skin, it did tend to make my skin feel a little too tight and dry). The Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion is one of my favorite Clinique products and really is like refreshing drink for your skin—great in the winter and a good follow-up to the Clarifying Lotion.Read Full Review

A new Wisconsin Historical Society website is coming mid-May 2014! See a preview >>
Portrait of Alexander Winchell, Revenaugh & Co., Ann Arbor, Michigan, 1869. WHi 45215
A self-educated engineer and naturalist, Increase Lapham was Wisconsin's first scientist and one of the state's foremost citizens. He wrote the first book published in Wisconsin; made the first accurate map of the state; investigated Wisconsin's effigy mounds, native trees and grasses, climatic patterns, and geology; and helped found many of the schools, colleges and other cultural institutions, including the Wisconsin Historical Society, that still enrich the state today. He also kept in-touch with many of the leading geologists, botanists, and other scientists and artists of his day, amassing an album of photographs to visually complement his extensive personal correspondence. Lapham's album of portraits, 95 in all, is the feature gallery this month from Wisconsin Historical Images, the Society's online image database.
Lapham was born in Palmyra, New York, in 1811, and came west to Milwaukee in 1836 to assist with the construction of the Milwaukee and Rock River Canal. The canal was never built but Lapham decided to stay in Wisconsin, helping his new hometown grow from a village to a booming city. Appointed deputy surveyor for Wisconsin Territory, Lapham surveyed city plots, registered land claims, and drew the basic plat of the city. In 1836, he published Wisconsin's first scientific imprint, a Catalogue of Plants and Shells Found in the Vicinity of Milwaukee. His Geographical and Topographical Description of Wisconsin, published in 1844, became the first commercially printed book in Milwaukee and proved popular with immigrants seeking information about their new home.
Among his approximately 80 publications, the two most important were The Antiquities of Wisconsin (1855), which focused attention on the state's Indian mounds, and On the Disastrous Effects of the Destruction of Forest Trees, Now Going on So Rapidly in the State of Wisconsin (1876), a pioneering work in the field of forest conservation.
Like other scientists of his time, Lapham shared plants, fossils, rocks, meteorological observations and fish through the mail. It was through this practice that Lapham acquired these photographs.

I recently bought a 3GS on Vodafone (mid January). Everything is a lot different than I remember Jailbreaking wise compared to the days of FW 1.1.2 and the like, and I wondered whether my 3GS is Jailbreakble (even if tethered)?
It's a 32GB 3GS, with pre-installed 3.1.2. I don't know about the baseband/bootrom (or even what they are as I only used to Jailbreak Touch's). And the serial number starts with 88951.
So in a nutshell, is it do-able? And would I be able to restore to plain 3.1.2 after JB'ing if I wanted to?

Tucson >Food & Dining > Cracker Barrel Old Country Str
8400 N Cracker Barrel Rd, Tucson, AZ | Directions 8574332.359238 -111.092799
Mon. - Thu., Sun. 6am - 10pm;Fri. - Sat. 6am - 11am
Neighborhoods: Continental Ranch Business Park
Great staff – A few weeks ago we visited Cracker Barrel Resturaunt on Cortero in Tucson. My husband has dementia and had a little "accident". The manager on duty was so very awesome and helped me by standing guard at the bathroom door and was kind and discreet. Thank you for aiding in keeping his dignity.......
not my WORST breakfast but close – First time ever, I won't make that mistake again. I have read the reviews, the 5 stars ratings must be native Tucsonans or employees. This place is horrible, it is clean and comfortable, hence the star. The service is slightly below Tucson standard which is one step above France, (for tucson people, that means it SUCKS!). The food was edible but barely. However the orange juice was awesome. The prices for what you get are a little high, but understandable. I have been a secret shopper. If I was shopping this place someone would be fired if not closed down. If I DO secret shop again I won't go to cracker barrel I would rather pay for Mcdonalds where no one speaks English, than to not only eat for free but get paid for writing a review. I'm not sure how you can stay in business, unless most of your patrons are from here and don't know any better. Please do us a favor shut your doors, and tear the building down.
A little ole' country general store serving down-home foods and goods since 1969. – In Short
Originating in Lebanon Texas, this country store and restaurant has branched out all over the U.S. The décor includes old advertising signs, farm equipment, early kitchen appliances and photos which complement the country-style seating. Their menu includes home-style comfort foods like meatloaf and house-made mashed potatoes daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Make sure to stop into the gift shop for souvenirs and a variety of knick-knacks.
Seriously? – I can not believe Cracker Barrel rates as one of Tucson's Best Breakfast places! Incredible. That's like rating MacDonald's #1! It's a nice enough place, but it's cookie-cutter -- looks like every other Cracker Barrel in the USA. Same mediocre food, unenthusiastic service and dimly lit atmosphere as the other 1500 of them...what's so special about that? This restaurant probably enjoys popularity due to its proximity to the interstate and motels, and the lack of decent restaurants nearby. Save your $$ and go to IHOP or MacDonald's down the road a bit.
Dont eat here – I not only did not enjoy the food but the service was lousy and there are many other breakfast resturaunts to dine at than Cracker Barrel
countryblah hype – hard to get too, food is typical southern hype, rarely meets what mom would make satndards.
then you have to wend your way past the real bussiness tourist trap goods. somewhere in the trip from georgia the pot fell off the wagon.
SUCKS – If you've ever been to the cracker barrel in another state, preferably the south you know how terrible this one is. i've been atleast 5 times and the food is terrible. no flavor what so ever. check out dons on oracle and roger.
The Food Sucks – The food was very salty. The service was lousy. I rank service by how many times they refill my soda or coffee without having to ask. You had to pull teeth to get a refill or even find the waitress once the food was delivered tothe table. Tip $0.01
Old Timer Infestation – It is shocking to me that the Cracker Barrel is considered the top breakfast place in Tucson. Tucson has many wonderful restaurants that dont revolve around hill billy motifs such as this one. The food is bland and nothing spectacular. Its exactly what youd expect from a chain restaurant whose main concern is to bring in truck drivers and seniors. The worst part of this establishment is the decor and environment. If you are comfortable with the tacky ranch style, hometown table clothes, and the out in the prairie wall decorations, then you probably eat here all the time. Youll probably feel right at home if you are accustomed to the nursing home odors of the large parties of seniors who waddle in here like cattle from the range. However, if you are not part of the nursing home or retirement community, this is definitely not the place for you.
Love Uncle Hershal – My favorite breakfast is the Uncle Hershal!! Two Eggs, choice of meat (I LOVE the grilled catfish), hashbrown cassarole, grits and biskets and gravy!!!
Cracker Barrel has the best selection of breakfast entrees in TUCSON!!
